    I replied to your original comment before you added the additional information, and apologize if I misunderstood. Just going by your shorter original comment though, it seemed like you were arguing that OP pointing out the fact that ignoring/taking a neutral stance/downplaying or denying that what is happening right now is psychopathic, is somehow itself an extremist stance to take.

    Just to be 100% clear, absolutely fuck antisemitism, but OP’s post doesn’t say anything remotely antisemitic.

    The argument is simply that regardless of politics, identity, history, or anything else, as humans, knowing what is happening to other humans in Gaza right now in this moment, we can’t acknowledge reality and pretend that it’s anything other than genocide.

    That shouldn’t be an extreme opinion, but somehow people will repeatedly argue that it is.
